Pre-workout news from Spring Training Day 2

During the hour and 15 minutes I spent in the clubhouse this morning, I didn't see any new faces.

Raul Ibanez made an appearance late yesterday afternoon and he looked much stronger. I'm hearing that he worked at almost all winter with a personal trainer. Hopefully we'll get some time with him over the next couple days. Oh, and he had a beard too...not Jayson Werth like, but a beard nonetheless.

Dom Brown has yet to talk to the media. We're hopeful he'll do so after the workout today.

Got a few minutes with minor league Michael Schwimer today. I'll either be blogging about him or putting him in my notebook. He addressed his unorthodox motion and what it was like throwing a bullpen next to Roy Halladay.
